The following recap for "The Vampire Diaries" season 6, episode 17 "A Bird in a Gilded Cage" contains spoilers.
First off, Caroline and Stefan have both lost their humanity, yet while Caroline could still control herself while Stefan is out of control. He wanted Caroline to lose control as well but she had other things to worry about with her audition for the school musical the next day.
Meanwhile, Elena told Damon that his mother is still alive and is a ripper. So they had to get to Lily back in 1903, along with Bonnie and Kai, because Lily's presence in present day Mystic Falls might just help Stefan be back to his normal self. They traveled to 1903 with Damon promising Bonnie that she'll get all the answers to her prayers if she agrees to come.
Lily revealed that she has a family which has to be taken to present day Mystic Falls. It turned out that this family has been helping her out satisfy her blood thirst and has helped her control her emotions as well. She also told her story about how a nurse fed her vampire blood and Damon did the same thing by telling her about how Stefan killed their father. Lily seemed delighted with that news. Elena also got a baby picture of Damon - the only baby picture she has.
Meanwhile, Caroline's audition didn't go well and then Stefan showed up to trigger her to lose control. They fought and ended up with Caroline losing her control by feeding off someone else and then having sex.
Bonnie has changed, too, when she stabbed Kai on the chest but he magically disappeared. They have left him in 1903, crying. Back in the present day, Lily is staying at the Salvatore's trying to work out a computer until Bonnie gave Damon something: the cure for vampirism.
